Learnings for Week 25 2010

• Checking if a javascript function exists in the page:
  • typeof functionName == ‘function’
• Tig a simple command-line yet visual interface to Git
• Filename completion in Vim with ctrl-x then ctrl-f
• Had issues with parts of the page not redrawing correctly, the culprit was a position: relative - not really sure why.
• jQuery delegate method is the ‘new’ way to do live events, cleaner syntax and promotes using a context so the events don’t have to bubble all the way up the DOM. Learning JQuery has a pretty good explanation.
